DC's 'Superhero Fight Club 2.0' Unleashes Gorilla Grodd

It is the most wonderful time of the year: The CW is back for a new season of superhero TV. To commemorate the new seasons of Arrow, The Flash, Legends of Tomorrow, and Supergirl moving from CBS, the CW has unleashed Superhero Fight Club 2.0, a web-exclusive treat that’s nothing but fun.

Not that Superman would make this any fairer: Apparently Cisco and Felicity had to make hella upgrades just to get everyone even with Supergirl.

The fight itself is, admittedly, a little disappointing, but the whole thing is still a blast. Unlike last year, which were 1-on-1 fights, this time the heroes are pitted in a free-for-all while fending off Cisco and Felicity’s death machine. In the end Cisco unleashes GORILLA FUCKING GRODD, which means Superhero Fight Club 2.0 might not be in canon since Gorilla Grodd was banished to Earth-2 in Season 2 of The Flash.

Superhero Fight Club 2.0 also lacks a few faces. The Dark Archer (and ex-Ra’s al Ghul) — who was in last year’s Fight Club — was MIA, as were Captain Cold, Heat Wave, and the Reverse-Flash. Also missing were new villains like Damien Darhk (who will be in Legends of Tomorrow Season 2), Zoom, and Vandal Savage. Other heroes like Black Canary, Arsenal, Speedy, Rip Hunter, and Hawkman and Hawkgirl were absent too, though being dead is an excuse for some of them.
